    On May 21st, the twelfth year of Eiroku, the rain had stopped and the sun was rising. In the Ugasaki Hall located on the northern edge of the Kai Basin, the ministers gathered in the courtyard anxiously, waiting anxiously for the doctor's diagnosis.  Takeda Shingen's asthma symptoms suddenly worsened, adding insult to injury to the crisis-ridden Takeda family.  After a while, Takeda Katsuyori walked out slowly accompanied by an old doctor. The ministers hurriedly approached and asked: "How is the master's condition? Is he in danger? When can he come out to take charge of the overall situation?" The old doctor  Nuxu said: "This attack is very serious. I didn't expect that His Highness, Dr. Dashan, would also suffer from severe airway disease. If we follow the previous treatment for asthma, it will only get worse. Fortunately, I found it early enough.  Only to avoid a disaster" Shimo Sone Masari grabbed the old doctor by the collar and said angrily: "You old man, don't talk nonsense, can my lord come out and take charge of the situation now?  It looks like it will be bad without the lord to show up! " "Uh-huh" The old doctor was choked and was about to roll his eyes when a few young samurai pulled Shimo Sone Masari away. Takeda  Katsuyori scolded with dissatisfaction: "How unbecoming is it to use violence in public! See, do you still look like a warrior? Your clothes are disheveled, your etiquette is gone, your shoulders are hunched over your back, and you look angry, and you still don't want to be seen by outsiders.  I thought all the samurai of the Takeda family were so unruly!" "Ha!" Shimosone Masaru lowered his head angrily and muttered softly: "The bastard of the Suwa family dares to ride on me.  Kamisano" Sone Tora glanced at him and coughed deliberately to cover up his voice. He is Shimo Sone Masato's uncle. Since his younger brother Sone Toromei was implicated in Takeda Yoshinobu's rebellion, he was killed.  , the Sone clan was deeply dissatisfied with Takeda Shingen, the governor of the clan. Sone Toramori was one of Takeda Yoshinobu's servants. The Sone clan was a die-hard supporter of Takeda Yoshinobu. It is conceivable that a powerful member of the clan died.  How dissatisfying it would be to be suppressed one after another.  Takeda Katsuyori slowly glanced at the ministers for a moment.  With a touch of pride, he said: "My father's health is not good. He needs to think less and rest more. He should not be too busy. Therefore, my father ordered that the family affairs be transferred to me, Katsuyori. I, Mino Mamoru of Baba, and Mimasaku Atobe  Mamoru, Nagasaka Diao Xianshai and Imofuku Jing Xianshai can testify. "Young Master is right! I can testify." Nagasaka Mitsuken entered Dao Xianshai and nodded. Takeda Shingen's direct subordinates,  He is known for his loyalty and reliability in his family.  With this veteran's strong evidence, the warriors' last extravagant hopes came to naught.  "Damn it! Are we really going to be ruled by this guy Suwa Katsuyori? We really can't accept it!" Shimosone Masato clenched his fists angrily and quietly turned his head to find that his fellow Sone Masayo also had a similar expression. Fortunately, they  The two were squeezed into the second row and were not seen by Takeda Katsuyori.  The family members bowed their heads and saluted. Takeda Katsuyori reservedly accepted the courtesy and said with a smile: "Today's crisis. I, Katsuyori, are very aware of it. Although the dangers in Kai Kingdom are very dangerous, I  As the general of the Western Army, the Takeda family single-handedly held off the main force of the Eastern Army for nearly two months, which fully demonstrated the bravery of our Kai samurai. The rest of the battle can be left to the reinforcements. " Oyamada Masayuki frowned and said: "The Western Army's.  Can the reinforcements really rescue me from Kai's crisis? "I believe that I must be our nemesis!" Takeda Katsuyori said confidently: "Just" At this time, Kosaka Masanobu.  He walked out and said in a cold tone: "The crisis in Kai is that we are surrounded by enemies on all sides. Most of the northern part of Juma County fell into the hands of Yukitaka Sanada, the Mikawa sects rebelled, the Toe sects rebelled, and the Suruga sects led their troops to join the Eastern Army. We  When all escape routes are cut off, is it really useful to rely on the Western Army at this time?" Takeda Katsuyori's face turned blue with anger. He hated being intercepted the most in his life. He glared at him bitterly and was about to speak.  I heard Baba Nobuka echoing: "It is said that part of the main force of the Western Army has been transferred to Owari Province to stand by, but we were in a hurry to retreat and did not have time to find out how many reinforcements there were. Logically speaking, the reinforcements should rescue us as soon as possible.  Why is there no movement yet?" Kobata Masamori also sneered: "Last month the army wasted time by besieging Sakamoto, but by now the battle of Sakamoto should have been completed! No reinforcements have been sent yet, are there any?  Keep the Allies' embarrassment in mind. It's Oda Nobunaga who doesn't mean what he says and is just teasing us!" Takeda Katsuyori was trembling with anger and was about to scold the rudeness of the crowd when he suddenly saw someone in the crowd.  There was a commotion.  Someone pinched their throat and said: "If we had accepted the request of the Right General Palace, would we have been able to join the Eastern Army and avoid the war? After all, we are Eastern Warriors, so joining the Western Army is nothing"   "Ahem!" Jinfu Jingxianzhai said with a smile: "My lord is not in good health and needs to recuperate. How about coming here today and continuing the debate tomorrow?" The ministers looked at each other, bowed and bowed and slowly retreated, some  Needless to say, I know that it is impossible to realize it. No matter how much trouble there is in the Takeda family, they are not willing to let the family business break up. The so-called surrender of the right general's request is impossible to realize. In other words, as long as a Kaibi has the backbone and ambition.  Even the samurai would not agree. The almost harsh demands made by Minamoto no Yoshiki were unacceptable to the Takeda family. Even if some members of the clan thought it was acceptable, they did not dare to say it. After all, Takeda Shingen and several of his sons committed seppuku.  , the conditions for establishing Takeda Nobushige as the governor of the family were already too much, and the reduction of the territory to Kai half country to 150,000 koku was even more impossible to agree to.  After the ministers had dispersed and only a few close ministers remained in the courtyard, Takeda Katsuyori said angrily: "Imofuku enters Johensesai! Answer me directly, why did you send them away just now! I am about to catch the man who is deceiving the public with his lies."  Bastard, then cut him into pieces! "Why did you do that?" "This is for the safety of the young master," Nagasaka Tokansai gave Takeda Katsuyori a deep look and said in a warning tone.  : "Now that our Takeda family is at the critical moment of life and death, we must not do anything that hurts our lord's popularity just because of some conflicts. When the young master exercises the power of family supervision on behalf of his lord, he should be more tolerant and kind with a heart of kindness."  Be understanding and be more patient and listen instead of getting angry or punishing people." Takeda Katsuyori roared: "Nagasaka Fishing Douxianzhai! What do you mean by this! I am the acting family governor of the Takeda family and the acting family governor.  The authority is natural. Why should I endure this when someone misled the public? What are your intentions? " "We are doing this out of public interest. You don't have to doubt it."  Baba Nobuka glanced at the angry Takeda Katsuyori and said calmly: "Young Master shouldn't be so angry. The first thing the acting governor did not go well with is that it shows that Young Master needs to listen patiently and learn with humility. After all, Young Master is still  The power of the acting governor, not the new governor of the Takeda family." Takeda Katsuyori said angrily: "Are you talking to me in this tone? Remember your identity! I am the lord and retainer.  You must respect your lord! My rudeness to you will be recorded one by one! " "The courtesy of a monarch and his ministers is the right thing to do! If the lord is wise and talented, he will naturally be respected by his retainers" Takasaka Masanobu sneered.  : "If the master is unworthy and virtuous, the ministers may not necessarily abide by the etiquette of the emperor and his ministers!" Takeda Katsuyori shouted angrily: "Kousaka Dansei!" "There is one more thing I want to warn the young master. After all, the young master is just the successor and acting governor of the family.  The power of the family governor. It is better to use this title less often. This is an overstep of the lord's authority. If it is spread, the retainers will laugh at him!" Kosaka Masanobu turned around and walked back to the house, and several senior officials remained silent.  Passing by him, no one made any other gesture to him other than a salute.  Takeda Katsuyori was shaken by the blow and almost sat down on the ground.  When I raised my head, I realized that among the many ministers in the courtyard, there was not a single trusted general of my own. The only one who could be considered a trusted confidant, Gomi Nagasaka Kansai, was not as loyal to him as he was to Takeda Shingen.  , Jibu Shengzi and his like are not yet qualified to enter the ranks of important ministers.  "How dare you bastards despise me! Just wait, I will get this debt back one by one!" Takeda Katsuyori left in panic. He didn't even notice that the title changed back to its original form.  look like.  Kousaka Masanobu walked back to the house, gently opened the door and smelled a strong smell of herbs.  Tiptoeing and deliberately walking slowly, he wandered outside the door of the inner room. Suddenly he heard a deep voice in the inner room saying: "Is it Torasuna? Come in!" "Yes!" Takeda Shingen looked sick and asked weakly.  : "How is the situation outside?" "Everything is fine, my lord, please rest assured and cultivate yourself!" Kosaka Masanobu lowered his head and comforted in a low voice: "Katsuyoriden is very good and will be a good family governor" Takeda Shingen  He shook his head and said: "Don't lie to me, it must be terrible outside! How much territory has been lost during this period. Is Suruga still in his hands? What is the situation with Oyamada and Anayama? Tell me the truth, I don't want to listen to those flattery words."  Seeing that he could not escape, Kosaka Masanobu had no choice but to explain the situation clearly. Shun Enzo was completely under the control of the Eastern Army.  Half of Juma County is under the control of Yukitaka Sanada. The most important thing is that Oyamada Nobushige and Nobu-kun Anayama have lost contact. The country's military strength is only more than 13,000 people. How long it can last is still a question.  Takeda Shingen slowly closed his eyes, and after a long time he sighed: "Oyamada and Anayama have been lost.Have you contacted me?  Sure enough, they have already cut in. More than half of Kai's territory has fallen into the hands of the enemy, and our Takeda family is going to be finished" "And" Takeda Shingen glanced at Kosaka Masanobu. If you were familiar with his character, you knew that he was hesitant, and said calmly:  ¡°If there¡¯s anything else left, let¡¯s explain it clearly in one breath!  I won't blame you.  " "The latest information I just received is that Takeda Nomado leads an army of more than 20,000 from Shunen's three avant-garde soldiers, and with Akiyama Nobuyoshi as the avant-garde, he leads 3,000 troops to attack Tsugasakikan.  "Kakasaka Masanobu suddenly knelt on the ground and cried loudly. While crying, he said: "It is all because of my incompetence. During the month when my lord was seriously ill, he was repeatedly defeated by the Eastern Army. The crime of losing an army and humiliating the country is unforgivable  ¡­¡± ¡°Jiro is finally here¡­¡± Takeda Shingen suddenly saw two long and short swords placed in the corner. The longer sword was named Lai Kunich¨­, and the shorter sword was Lai Kunich¨­. Both swords were  The Yuanfu gift given to him by his father Nobutora Takeda, more than thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and all the past events have changed. "Lord!  Are you listening?  "Kosaka Masanobu looked at him with concern, worried that Takeda Shingen would fall into coma on the spot with ribs in his hands like when he received Lai Kunijun a month ago. This illness would last for a month and lead to the gradual collapse of Kai Country's situation.  , leaving the Takeda retainers helpless and exhausted, Takeda Shingen said slowly: "I'm fine, I just lament that the world has changed too fast.  The glorious years of the past seem to be vaguely in front of my eyes, but they have become like this in the blink of an eye. As my father said, am I really not an excellent family governor?  " "That's not the case. My lord is the best family governor in the world. Even when our Takeda family encountered crises several times, he was still able to expand the territory and create a large habitat for the Kai samurai.  This is a great achievement that no matter how many warriors strive to achieve in their lifetime, they cannot achieve even one ten thousandth of it!  Please don't be discouraged, my lord, you will definitely get out of the predicament!  "Takasaka Masanobu tried to persuade him, but he was constantly blaming himself for his negligence and stupidity. He should not let the sick superintendent hear such dangerous information again. But sometimes, it is not that he can just pretend not to say anything.  It happened that the news that the governor of the prefecture, Oyamada Nobu-kun, had betrayed the Takeda family spread throughout Kai. Takeda Nobutora took his father Takeda Nobutora to attack the unscrupulous family governor Takeda Shingen in the name of "restoring the Shohei rebellion."  This was the first tit-for-tat confrontation between the two brothers. Satake Yoshige led an army of 20,000 people across the mountains and attacked the Kai Basin with Oyamada Nobumo as the vanguard. For a time, 70,000 troops gathered in the small Kai Kingdom.  Without the protection of the surrounding mountains, the Kai Basin was as fragile and powerless as a snail without its shell. The entire Kai Basin was vast and fertile, with no defense, and most of it was captured in an instant by Sanada Yukitaka, who led 30,000 people in the northwest.  The large army, plus more than 5,000 servants from Kai Kingdom and Suwa County, easily crossed the Kama River and went straight to Uzakikan. Takeda Nobushige in the southwest moved faster with the support of Anayama Nobujun, the leading party.  , and possessing the title and the righteousness to attack the family governor, the remaining garrison troops in the cities along the way all surrendered. Even the Satake Yishige Division, which was not progressing smoothly, easily crossed the Fuefuki River at this time and was in the center of the Kai Plains.  Joining forces with the other two armies, 70,000 people surrounded a weakly defended Pingcheng Uozaki Hall, and the garrison in the city was reduced to less than 2,000 people in just a few days and collapsed quickly.  Unexpectedly, the Takeda family has been deserted. After a few days, the people in Uzakikan are already in a panic. The peace and tranquility of the past are no longer the same. The defenders in the city are only a few hundred loyal samurai and more than a thousand ashigaru.  Keep going. Loyal, brave, and with complicated thoughts such as repaying gratitude, in short, those samurai and ashigaru who have been favored by Takeda Shingen over the years have remained. They are the last courage of the Takeda family, and many of their enemies are from the past.  Relatives, old friends, colleagues and friends, in just a few days, turned into two camps: the enemy and the enemy. It can be said that the world is unpredictable. Takeda Shingen's condition has recovered well and he can stand up and walk around the courtyard. He refused to transfer his son Takeda Katsuyori to the hospital.  In order to meet the requirements of the defense of the mountain castle cage, he stubbornly stayed in the Tsugasaki Hall. Also staying were Takasaka Masanobu, Baba Nobubo and other close confidants and veterans for many years. The other clans fled to death, such as the Sone clan.  There are many traitors in the collective, and most of the members of the clan have disappeared. On the contrary, a few families of the Ashigaru generals still remain, but none of these can stop the Eastern Army. The Takeda family is really going to end. At this moment, Takeda Shingen is lost.  The flying style of the past is like a middle-aged man who has experienced vicissitudes of life sitting on the corridor of the courtyard and singing poetry. He listened carefully to the ballad of Xing Ruowu from "Atsheng", and after a long time he sighed: "It's a pity that my disabled body cannot be driven."  , otherwise I really want to dance a Xingruo dance as the final ceremony!  ¡± There was a fierce exchange of iron cannon fire in the city, and occasionally there was an earth-shattering artillery explosion., screams and cries intertwined, the earth trembled again and again, like a helpless child, moaning in pain, and occasionally there was the sound of a building collapsing, and everyone in the courtyard was in awe.  Heartbroken, the shamisen in Xiao Xing's hand stopped unconsciously, and he looked at Takeda Shingen in confusion, feeling at a loss.  Takasaka Masanobu made a gesture to the little surname, stood up, walked to the courtyard and bowed: "If my lord doesn't mind, let me dance this section for you!" The music played again, Takasaka Masanobu slowly danced to Xingruo  Even though he is over forty and his body has gained weight and is out of shape, and he is no longer as handsome and charming as he once was, his dancing postures and movements are still graceful and perfect. His excellent physique, which he has trained in many years of fighting, is clearly revealed.  He added to the fun, and there were several other people who played drums, played shakuhachi, and shook golden bells. Although they were not as professional as the monkey musicians, they fit the situation perfectly.  Takeda Shingen sang softly: "I often think about this world, wandering without a fixed place, sighing for the moon in the water, floating like the morning dew, fifty years in the world, compared with the heaven and earth, it seems like a small thing, looking at the world as a dream like water, let's live one life at a time,  Immediately after entering and passing away, this is the seed of Bodhi. Feelings of annoyance fill your mind. If you go to the capital at this moment, if you see the head of Lord Dunsheng, if you look at the world, sea and sky, there is no one who will live forever"
